Set the mood with light

Smart lighting designed to shape how every moment feels

A woman demonstrates the versatility of Philips Hue smart bulbs, seamlessly lighting her home with soft tones via a switch and app. Her partner uses surround lighting synced to a video game, while outdoor spaces transform into colorful party scenes. The Hue app and secure camera enhance connectivity, showcasing dynamic lighting control throughout their daily activities and spaces.

In this video, a woman slowly walks around her kitchen and dining area. As she moves through the space, Philips Hue smart bulbs gradually light up, filling the kitchen with soft, warm tones of white light. She clicks a smart switch to turn on the lights and moves into another room where her partner and son are playing. Her partner then plays a video game in the living room filled with surround lighting, reacting to everything on the TV screen. He sees her on his smartphone through the Hue app and a secure camera walking in the backyard. The backyard suddenly transforms into an outdoor party filled with colorful lights. Finally, she is back in the kitchen where she switches off the lights using the Hue app.

From warm, comforting glows to millions of expressive colors, Philips Hue bulbs, lamps, and light fittings let you create and curate the perfect ambiance.
